Looked for another thread but couldn't find one, anyone applying to University of Washington's (UW) DNP program starting Autumn 2021? What track is everyone applying to? Does anyone know if any one thing is worth more weight in admissions (GPA, LORs, Experience, etc.)? Does anyone know the profile of a competitive applicant? Someone in the 2020 thread posted a link for admission stats from 2018, looked like around a 35-45% acceptance rate, depending on the track. I haven't been able to find any updated information. Anyone have any? I'll be applying to the Adult Gerontology Acute Care NP track! 0 Likes More Like This Bad idea to quit after 6m as a new grad for DNP school? by Theanxiousnurse, BSN Primary Care Provider Perceptions of Telemedicine Before and During the COVID-19 Pandemic: IRB-approved DNP Research Project by sabrinaplatt, BSN, RN University of Washington (UW) Queen Silvia Dementia Nursing Award by sirI, MSN, APRN, NP ONS Doctoral Scholarships by Joe V Is it frowned upon by supervisors and coworkers if a new grad nurse pursues DNP? by jeexrn

When I did one of the information sessions a couple weeks ago, they didn't now how many people would apply for the DNP program, but stated the BSN program had three times as many applicants as pre-COVID. 0 Likes

Yeah I'm not sure, I could see it going either way, people are burned out from bedside because of COVID and trying to go NP, or people are burned out and don't want to go back to school. 0 Likes
